From Man FraiicUco Apjwul to HUunii'r Owners. PORTLAND, Or., Dec. 28. Me llevelng that far closer relations can bo established with the townH along the Umnqua and Sululaw, local merchant are taking steps to Induce the owners of the steamer Arago which recently begnn to ply between Portland and Tillamook, to drop In to the former coast ports on both tha up and down trips. Under the present arrangements It Is said that practically all of the commerce from that eectlon goes to Han rrnnclsco. With regular stenmshtp Bervlce to Portland It Is the consennus of onin Ion that this condition would be re versed. Relative to the matter. J Kahn, a well known local business man, says: "I am certain that the merchants of Portland would secure much valu able trndo If a boat from hero should go in thoro regularly. Resides I think It would 1)0 a paying proposi tion to the steamship line. That Is one of the richest sections of Ore gon. But so far the residents hnve been greatly handicapped on account of poor and uncertain transportation facilities. To ship out thoir pro duct they hnve been forced to de pend upon the Irregular visits of Binnll sailing vesRols from San Frnn cIbco, and they procure their goods In the enme innnnor. "It Is one of the best dnlry and stock rnlslng regions In Oregon. The best grndo of oatB on ihe const Is produced on (ho Umpuua. A rem!) market for them Is found at Sun Francisco, whore the cereal com mands a higher price than any oth er onts grown In the Northwest. In addition thoro are .large sawmlllr wlth a big annual output which liar to seek a market In California. Then are several salmon canneries and many other lines of Industry from which regular patronnge would be received If a Portland steamer would cnll in there. In the past few your? that section hns been greatly devel oped, and few people up this way np pear to have any conception of It." O. N. G. WILL TRY AGAIN FOR AN APPROPRIATION F. R. Hamlin on Committee to Dlrecl CiuiiuIkii Hmnllrr HtiilKliiig Army In Favored. PORTLAND, Or., Dec. 28. Undis mayed by thoir defeat at the general election In Juno, tho National (luurds mcn of Oregon will nttompt to secure tho passago of a revised and modi fled armory appropriation bill nt the coming session of the Oregon leg islature. Much action hns already been set In motion. Tho legislative committee or the Nntlonnl (lunrd As sociation which Is holding its third annual convention In tho Armory, this afternoon wrestling with a pre liminary draft of the measure which will bo submitted. Tho Importance of this announcement may te seen from the fact thut tho $100,000 ar mory appropriation bill which passed the last legislature but was snowed under through referendum treatment at the general polls, aroused the most strenuous and bitter opposition from tho Stale (irnnge nnd tho Tax payers' League of this city. That measure carried but two counties In the state, the reason being, so It. if now stated, that It was not speclllc enough In Its provisions, and nt the snino tlmo did not appeal to tho vol ors of the rural districts. The legislative rommlitee upon whoso shoulders will devolve the duty of waging the rnmpnlgn for n new armory appropriation bill will he Colonel McDonnell, chairman: Colonel lavld M. Dunne.

The Oregon guardsmen are also likely to go on record ns fnvnrliiR the passage by Congnwa of the rut ting down of tho standing army of the United States from r.0,000 to 30 -000 men; for the uplifting of a much stronger National reserve; for the abandonment of Interior military posts, for the mobilization of the regular army at strategic points for roam ami narnor demise work. Iteso lutlonfl are llkelv tn rrrv t,i H r. feet that the president of Ihe United fltntes should permit the nMHlirtniteitt of officers of state militia to service in me rogulnr army for a period nt not less than two years on full pay and allowance, and to resume their rormer post In tho guard wllhou loss of rank. Another rmolnllon likely to be nuopted la one favoring the assign ment of officers nt the render irnu to commands In the various national guards of the different stntes. Each and all of these nt'ommcndnlions are In the Interest of putting the United States on a "peace footing of National reserves equal In fighting power to the regular standing armies ' any nation on earth. The old volunteer system which was so effect ive In the earlier wars Is now looked up as an anachronism, and not the effective fighting machine that ran be developed out of the Intelligent evolution of the National reserve idea either from the standpoint of khnrn,aa i1","'1 lu ,""'8 of EKANC'K KICHKST NATION. PARIS, Dec. 28. Although gen eral trade conditions In France siilfer ed in 1908 lurgely because of the reduction in American demand, fig urea submitted by M. Iroy Deaulleu and other statisticans demonstrate the Imposing strength of France's fin ancial position and her right to the title of "Tho World's Hanker." France's fortune Ib growing steadily as the result of an annual savings of $1,000 000,000, much or which must seek investment abroad. M. Leroy Deuulleu's figures show that France now receives $:ti0,000, 000 as annual Income from foreign holdings. Ho estimates the present wealth of the French people at $45, 000,000,000 or more than $1100 for every mnn, woninn nnd child, and as the estimate Ib bused upon de clared succession taxes, it is admit tedly much below the real figures. Medicine That Ib Medicine. "I have suffered a good deal with malaria and stomach complaints, but I have now found a remedy that keeiis me well, and that remedy is Electric Hitters; a medicine that is a medicine for Btomach and liver trou bles, nnd for run down conditions," says W. C. Kelster, of Hallidny, Ark , Bloctrlc Hitters purify and enrich the blood, tone up tho nerves, and Impart vlgoi and energy to the weak. Your money will be refunded if It falls to help you.

The chuckwulla seeks to es cape bis adversary by crawling Into n crevice of a rock so narrow that it seems impossible to get him out. But the Indians have learned nil bis tricks and how to circumvent them. To the desert nborlglne the chuckwulla is nl luring. He casts on the chuckwnlla: hence lie grows wise ns to Its habits He takes n piece of strong wire or n bent twig, and, poking it into the crev ice, he taps the chuckwnlla on the end of the nose. In n moment the angered reptile exhales a kind of hiss, the noise being nindc by n rapid expulsion of the brenth. As ho thus exhales be loses his hold on the rocks, nnd in a moment the Indian pulls on his tall As speedily as n Mash of lightning the chiickwnlln inhales again ami tightens himself in his recess.

A young houeymoou couple were sitting side by side gazing on the lovely scenery around them. "Isu't It heavenly, George?" Bhe mur mured. "I feel thrills all over me." Then without a pause, us If still car ried awuy by the Inspiration of the moment, "Dearest, If there are uuy left I think I would like a chocolate." No good reason exists why spiritual emotions should not make one hungry. The bride who demanded sweets was 'wiser than a girl who once remained 8 tuning und Inconsolable lu her room after the departure of her lover fur India. At last an amateur Hebe ven tured upslulrs with a cup of coffee and a plate of toast.

One day M. Kdmoud About called upon Oris lor, the most celebrated fenc ing master of bis day. "I am In a quandary," said About "I allowed myself yesterday the pleasuro of a Joke In bad taste, and a duel Is to be the result. I know nothing whatever about fencing, and, as you can Bee, 1 am fat. Will you give me a lesson, so that I may nut make myself too ridicu lous?" Thtf lesson was given, but About proved a very poor pupil. On his way out he saw a photograph of Orisler. "I suppose," he said, "I must not ask you for one of these?" "With the greatest pleasure," said the fencing master. And. with a chuckle, (irlsier wrote across tho photograph, "To M. I'Mmond About, the best pupil I have over had." A few hours afterward the seconds of About's adversary called on the writer, saw the photograph on the innutelplece and, fearing for their friend at the hands of so redoubtable a swordsman, arranged the a flair with out any duel.

Always he was so courteousalways his actions, like this little one of kissing my hand, were so beautifully timed. They came Just before the shken words and gave them peculiar value. "That's not a bad summing up of It all," I said. "And the end bow would you like that to come?" "How would I like thnt to come?" He repeated iny question lightly, yet meditatively too.
